This pier is handicap accessible, and there is one handicap parking spot right at the start of the pier. There is a porta-pottie at the parking area for public use. I could not find a public water spigot. The "park" area to the east of the parking area was pretty trashy. My visit was only about a month after a Cat 5 hurricane (Irma) went thru the area, and there was a good amount of broken limbs down, but beer bottles, cups, and misc trash looks to have been here before that. Only about 5 parking spaces other than the handicap, so parking is limited.
